(وَمَا كَانَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ لِيَنْفِرُوا كَافَّةً فَلَوْلَا نَفَرَ مِنْ كُلِّ فِرْقَةٍ مِنْهُمْ طَائِفَةٌ لِيَتَفَقَّهُوا فِي الدِّينِ وَلِيُنْذِرُوا قَوْمَهُمْ إِذَا رَجَعُوا إِلَيْهِمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَحْذَرُونَ (التوبة 122It is not possible for the believers to go forth all together. Why, then, does not a party from every section of them go forth that they may become well versed in religion, and that they may warn their people when they return to them, so that they may guard against evil?

JAMIATUL MUBASHIREEN, GHANA

Jamiatul Mubashireen, previously known as Ahmadiyya Muslim Missionary
Training College (AMMTC), has served to a good level the cause of Islam
Ahmadiyyat. It has played a key role in the widespread of Islam
Ahmadiyyat worldwide particularly in the African Continent.

The Commencement

An
Ameer and Missionary-In-Charge, Ghana. The college operated on the batch
system with an initial population of thirteen (13), comprising nine
Ghanaians and four (4) Nigerians. Maulvi Muhammad Saddique Gurdaspuri
Sahib was appointed as the first Principal with Mr. Jibreel Saeed as the
Housemaster.

Transfer of the College

The college is now sited in Ekumfi-Ekrawfo in the Central Region of
Ghana, having been transferred from Saltpond on 6 January 2003.
Historically, Ekumfi-Ekrawfo is the birthplace of Ahmadiyyat in Ghana,
where the first Ghanaian Ahmadi - Chief Mahdi Appah hailed. This is the
place where the first Markazi Missionary – Maulana Abdur Raheem Nayyar Sahib
was received in 1921 after disembarking in saltpond.

HADITH OF THE DAY

"For our Mahdi (Spiritual Reformer) there are two Signs which have never occurred before since the creation of the heavens and the earth, namely, the moon will be eclipsed on the first night in Ramadhan (i.e., on the first of the nights on which a lunar eclipse can occur) and the Sun will be eclipsed on the middle day of Ramadhan (i.e., on the middle day on which a solar eclipse can occur) and these Signs have not happened since the creation of the heavens and the earth (Dare Qutani, Vol.1, p.188)

THE PROMISED MESSIAH(AS) SAYS;

The Truth About Eclipses

"We are not concerned with how often solar and lunar eclipses have occurred in the month of Ramadhan from the beginning of the world till today. Our aim is only to mention that from the time man has appeared in this world, solar and lunar eclipses have occurred as Signs only in my age for me. Prior to me, no one had this circumstance that on the one hand he claimed to be Mahdi Mauood (Promised Reformer) and on the other, in the month of Ramadhan, on the appointed dates, lunar and solar eclipses occurred and he declared the eclipses as signs in his favor. The Hadees of Darqutani does not say at all that solar and lunar eclipses did not occur ever before, but it does clearly say that such eclipses never occurred earlier as Signs, because the word ‘Takoona’ is used which denotes feminine gender; this implies that such a Sign was never manifested before. If it was meant that such eclipses never occurred before, ‘Yakoona’ which denotes masculine gender was needed and not ‘Takoona’ which denotes feminine gender. It is clear from this that the reference is to the two signs because signs are feminine gender. Hence if anybody thinks that lunar and solar eclipses have occurred many times before, it is his responsibility to show the claimant to Mahdi who declared the solar and lunar eclipses as his signs and this proof should be certain and conclusive and this can only happen if a book of the claimant is produced who claimed to be Mahdi Mauood and had written that the lunar and solar eclipses which occurred in Ramadhan on the dates specified in Darqutani are the Signs of his truth. In short, we are not concerned with the mere occurrence of solar and lunar eclipses even if they had occured thousands of times. As a sign this has happened at the time of a claimant only once and the Hadees has proved its authenticity and truth through its fulfillment at the time of the claimant to Mahdi. (Chashma-e-Marifat, Roohani Khazain, Vol.23, pp. 329 - 330)"
